Nowadays more a tourist attraction than a means of transportation, the Elevador Santa Justa links downtown Lisbon to Carmo Square; it also takes you to a great viewpoint over the city.
At the foot of the Elevador de Santa Justa, you can get a close-up view of the lower floors by walking the surrounding stairs. The gothic style is evident here; every floor has a different pattern. The entrance to the elevator itself is at ground level. There are two cabins, each with a capacity of 24 passengers. The lift is operated by an operator, and has a classy wooden interior. There is only one stop: the top floor. From here, you can take spiral stairs to the viewing platform which offers fine views in all directions over Lisbon: São Jorge Castle, the Tagus river, the neighbourhoods which are downtown Lisbon. Instead of taking the elevator down, you can also walk straight to Carmo Square from the elevator floor.
